I left Reddit to get away from that, but unfortunately there still seem to be a fair number of users here that also are convinced men are the real underclass, victimized by everything.
I think I mostly run into it on meme communities. Is that just the destiny of all meme communities? To be overtaken by MRAs? It sucks because I genuinely like memes, but I don’t like randomly being smacked in the face by misogyny all the time. Any other communities I should avoid?
Any insight or tips appreciated 🥰
I’m not saying it’s uncommon or even wrong necessarily. I personally engage in plenty of highly kinky activity. I’m saying its an ironic juxtaposition to see. Gee guys what’s with all the misogyny here (literally have seen almost none and any that crops up is downvoted and aggressively commented on) by the way here’s a photo I drew of a teenage girl being raped and beaten. You have to admit, it’s a bit of an ironic idiological clash. Sure, you can divorce kink from every day life, I understand that. But I see the initial premise of the entire post as being false. As I’ve said in my other comments, I haven’t seen a pervasive daily barrage of misogyny in all the meme communities. When asked to provide examples so I at least understand what they are referencing, they go quiet or put blame on those asking. All that said I’m fully convinced this is a troll/bait post and it’s working on me.
I haven’t seen it either but I don’t see how their art is actually relevant or an ideological clash. Maybe kinda ironic sure but that doesn’t actually mean anything. I guess I’m not sure your point in bringing it up beyond basically muddying the waters.
If the topic is anger about misogyny and the OP makes misogynistic art (even in the vacuum of kink) I feel it’s a relevant aspect of the conversation. Even if just to point out the fact it is ironic. Misogyny is only acceptable when its portrayed in the specific context I like. Admittedly I was also triggered by the fact the first drawing below OP’s post looks like a child being raped. You lose me when you start including kids in your rape fantasy, even if its drawn. That made me want to figure out what exactly OP was trying to do/prove. Which, again I’m fairly certain is just bait/troll.
Again it just doesn’t come across as relevant at all because it’s not what they’re talking about it. It comes across as, again, muddying the issue. They’re complaining about misogyny, so why do they have this weird kink? Well, it doesn’t matter so there’s no reason to bring it up.
Is the art they make misogynistic? Leaving out the pedophilic angle. This is true, I used to date a black girl who liked being called slurs in bed. Now, say I made a post about how bad and pervasive slurs are on Lemmy. The first two things that would come up are, no they aren’t/can you show me that, and wait, aren’t you the guy who used slurs with your gf?
I mean looking at their art, I just see adult characters so there’s no pedophilia angle to begin with unless we start going down the actually misogynistic rabbit hole that we need to infantilize petite women. If unless there’s actual children in their art but I’m not interested in hunting through their backlog.
And no, I don’t think their art is misogynistic. Being into power dynamics in bed is not misogynistic.
